<div class="section"><p> Application Administration was designed for customizing the functions
|
||
|
|
available on your client PC. You should not use Application Administration
|
||
|
|
for administering security on your client PC for these reasons: </p>
|
||
|
|
<ul><li>Application Administration uses the Windows<sup>®</sup> registry to cache restrictions
|
||
|
|
on the client PC. A skilled user who is restricted from a function by Application
|
||
|
|
Administration could obtain access to the function by editing the registry.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>If multiple interfaces exist to the same resource, restricting a single
|
||
|
|
interface through Application Administration does not restrict the other interfaces
|
||
|
|
to the same resource. For example, you can restrict a user from accessing
|
||
|
|
the database function of iSeries™ Navigator through Application Administration.
|
||
|
|
However, the user can still access database files by using other database
|
||
|
|
interfaces, such as Open Database Connectivity (ODBC) or database control
|
||
|
|
language (CL) commands.</li>
